Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Please note that we can not guarantee the age, expected weight or breed of any animal. What we provide is our best estimates based on our experience and the information provided by the our medical partners. If breed and eventual size are of great importance we suggest looking into a breed specific rescue or adopting a full grown animal. Unless otherwise noted, ALL animals are fostered and available for adoption on Long Island, NY. Meet Samson Samson is the kind of dog who doesn’t just join your life—he becomes part of your heart. First and foremost, he’s a lover. Samson gives his whole self to his people. He forms deep bonds, protects his family like they are his pack, and offers a level of loyalty that is truly special. Because of that devotion, he does best with a confident, consistent leader who can provide clear boundaries and guidance. We suspect he may have some Ridgeback in him, and like many protective breeds, he takes his role seriously—he just needs help understanding what’s expected of him. Structure is everything for Samson. After spending so much time in a shelter environment, routine brings him comfort and security. His crate has become his safe space—once he understood it was his own, he embraced it fully. He’ll happily retreat there with a bone or when things feel overwhelming. A home that can offer consistency, routine, and a calm environment will help him continue to thrive. Samson would love a doggy sibling. He takes great comfort in other dogs and follows their lead beautifully. Being around confident, relaxed dogs helps him feel safe and settle in more quickly. Watching him reconnect with familiar dogs—running, relaxing, and simply being at ease—shows just how much he benefits from canine companionship. The Basics: • House trained • Dog friendly • Good with kids • Likely best in a home without cats (very curious and interested) • Gentle, affectionate “shadow” dog who loves being by your side • Lower energy (3/10); enjoys playtime but really loves snuggles and naps Samson is a truly special dog with so much love to give. He just needs the right home—one that understands him, provides structure, and gives him the chance to feel safe and loved. His people are out there. We’re just hoping they find him soon.

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
